The 86-year-old, Rosa, fell in the kitchen of her home in Sant'Anastasia and remained on the floor for several hours, according to Il Mattino.
She managed to call 112 but could not give her house number and could not remember her relatives' telephone numbers, according to Il Mattino and la Repubblica.
Carabinieri from the Radiomobile section of the Castello di Cisterna company searched among several buildings to find the flat, locating it after hearing the woman's groans. They opened the armoured door without damaging it using an old X-ray plate, according to Il Mattino.
Medical staff from the 118 service in Pollena Trocchia gave her first aid at the scene. According to la Repubblica, the woman had difficulty moving and used a walking frame.
Her son and grandson arrived after the rescue, and she was entrusted to them. The exact address, the precise number of hours she spent on the floor, and details of any injuries have not been reported.
